Google LLC is said to be working on a new Google Nest Hub smart home device that will use a built-in radar chip to power some of its features.
The Nest Hub (pictured) is a smart display from the search giant’s bestselling Nest line of voice-enabled gadgets. The device pairs the features of a standard smart speaker with a screen.
The radar chip the next version of the Nest Hub is said to include is based on technology developed by the search giant’s Advanced Technology and Projects unit, according to the Thursday report in 9to5Google that detailed the device. The unit first disclosed its work on applying radar to consumer devices in 2015. Four years later, Google launched an edition of its Pixel smartphone with a built-in radar chip that allows users to control the handset remotely.
